The fourth and latest to file is EMW Inc., which filed on Thursday. EMW is an incumbent on the current NetCents contract and provides services such as system engineering and technical assistance, operations and maintenance, IT and the cloud and infrastructure.

If the number of protests stays low, it gives the Air Force flexibility in how they resolve the issue and gets the contract up and running. With a small number of protesters, the Air Force could just as easily take a corrective action and give awards to the protestors and move on.

With a large number, it’s doubtful the Air Force would take quick action. They’d either fight through the 180-day window for GAO to go through its investigation, or they’d take a corrective action that involves a more thorough re-evaluation.
